3 topics that you’re interested in can select your own.
Identify and discuss 3 possible topics that you’re interested in exploring further. Each topic should be a fully developed paragraph. In next lessons you will choose ONE of these topics as your research project, but you MUST brainstorm 3.
Questions to respond to when brainstorming about your topic:
What do you already know about this topic?
What do you need to know more about?
How does this topic relate to you, your peers, and the community?
What specifically have you read recently about this topic?
How would you frame this topic so that it’s original? Focusing on a specific time or place? Focusing on specific research methods? Going again the grain? Focusing on the most recent events? Focusing on specific characteristics?
Then, respond to two of your classmates and give them your feedback on one, two, or all of their topics. What do you know about that issue? Is that topic interesting or relevant to you? What research methods would you suggest? What source have you read recently about this topic?
